What will the L.E. Phillips Memorial Public Library do next? Their latest news: you can now access nearly 5,000 totally free e-book titles using a Kindle and your humble library card. This latest development comes just after the start of their iPad check out service, and let's not forget about their Freegal digital download service offering you free music.

The Wisconsin Library System has got something special going on about which many other states cannot boast. They have a large shared collection of media, including books, music and electronic devices along with a resolute financial commitment to provide the best services for their communities. The Kindle program is only one part of the ongoing digitization that has been transforming the way patrons can access library resources across the state.

The library seems to be proving that they will adapt to the times of online media so to provide efficiently for the patrons of the Eau Claire Community while still maintaining a physical presences.
